Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of activated carbon sampling, specifically to an activated carbon sampling device for activated carbon pools. Background Technology
[0002] In activated carbon water treatment processes, regular sampling and testing of the activated carbon tank is a crucial step in evaluating adsorption efficiency and regeneration requirements. However, traditional sampling methods often rely on manual excavation to obtain carbon layer samples, which presents problems such as damaging the integrity of the tank structure, susceptibility of surface samples to external contamination, and difficulty in deep sampling, especially for large activated carbon tanks where accurate stratified sampling is challenging. Existing sampling tools generally suffer from fixed and non-adjustable structures, failing to adapt to sampling needs at different depths, and activated carbon particles are prone to settling due to their own weight during sampling, leading to stratification failure. While some devices employ tubular sampling structures, they lack effective in-situ filtration capabilities, requiring pre-emptive drainage of the tank water, significantly extending operation time. Furthermore, the non-removable structure of conventional samplers makes transportation and storage inconvenient, while rigid insertion methods easily disturb the carbon layer, affecting sample representativeness.

[0052] Please see Figures 1 to 9 This embodiment provides an activated carbon sampling device for an activated carbon pool, including a rod assembly 1, a sampling assembly 2, and a sleeve assembly 3. The rod assembly 1 includes a first connecting rod 11 and a second connecting rod 12, which are detachably connected. The sampling assembly 2 includes a sampling rod 21 and a guide plate 22, which are spirally distributed around the periphery of the sampling rod 21. The sampling rod 21 is detachably connected to the second connecting rod 12. The sleeve assembly 3 includes a sleeve 31 and a third connecting rod 32, which are connected. The sleeve 31 has a first end and a second end. The first end has a plurality of first water-permeable holes 311, and the edge of the second end has a cutting edge 312. The sleeve 31 is sleeved on the outside of the sampling assembly 2 and can move relative to the sampling assembly 2. The third connecting rod 32 is sleeved on the outside of the rod assembly 1.
[0053] In this embodiment, the activated carbon sampling device achieves non-destructive sampling of deep samples from the activated carbon pool through a modular design of rod assembly 1, sampling assembly 2, and sleeve assembly 3. Rod assembly 1 consists of a first connecting rod 11 and a second connecting rod 12, detachably connected by threads or snap-fit structures, and can be extended according to the pool depth. The first connecting rod 11 is a rigid rod that can be segmented and connected to other components, providing basic support and transmitting operating force. Its end is detachably connected to the second connecting rod 12 by threads or snap-fit structures, facilitating transportation or adjustment of the overall length of the device. The second connecting rod 12 is an extension rod coaxially connected to the first connecting rod 11, used to extend the longitudinal working range of the device. One end is fixed to the first connecting rod 11, and the other end is detachably connected to the sampling rod 21 of the sampling assembly 2, ensuring flexible and controllable sampling depth.
[0054] The sampling component 2 includes a sampling rod 21 and spirally distributed guide plates 22 around it. The sampling rod 21 is a columnar body, and the guide plates 22 are continuously surrounding curved surface structures used to collect the target medium. The spacing of the guide plates 22 is set according to the particle size of the activated carbon. Optionally, the spiral angle is controlled within the range of 25°-35° to ensure continuous material guiding effect when spiraling in.
[0055] The sleeve 31 refers to a hollow cylindrical protective structure used to enclose the sampling component 2 and isolate external interference. Its first end is the closed end near the top of the sampling rod 21, and the multiple first water-permeable holes 311 are evenly distributed circular or fan-shaped through holes to allow liquid or gas to exit the sleeve 31 during sampling. The second end is the open end at the bottom of the sleeve 31, and the edge 312 is a sharp ring structure formed by oblique cutting, used to cut the dense medium when cutting into the activated carbon layer and reduce propulsion resistance. The third connecting rod 32 is an auxiliary rod fixedly connected to the top of the sleeve 31, used to synchronously control the movement of the sleeve 31 along the axial direction of the rod assembly 1. The relative displacement between the sleeve 31 and the sampling component 2 is achieved through its structure sleeved on the outside of the rod assembly 1, thereby adjusting the cutting depth of the edge 312 and the exposure range of the water-permeable holes.
[0056] During sampling, the second connecting rod 12 is vertically inserted into the activated carbon tank after being aligned with the sampling rod 21. The rotating rod assembly 1 causes the guide plate 22 on the sampling rod 21 to cut into the activated carbon layer along a spiral trajectory. The axial force generated by the spiral structure pushes the activated carbon upwards along the gaps in the guide plate 22, filling the sampling cavity. When the sampling assembly 2 reaches the target depth, the third connecting rod 32 is held and pressure is applied downwards. The blade edge 312 of the sleeve 31, under its own weight and pressure, cuts into the activated carbon layer, forming a protective cover and effectively preventing the collapse of the surrounding carbon layer. During the lifting process, the liquid medium accumulated inside the sleeve 31 is filtered in situ through the first water-permeable hole 311, retaining the solid sample. After sampling is completed, all components are disassembled, and the columnar sample embedded in the spiral gaps of the guide plate 22 can be directly scraped for analysis.
[0057] The device provided in this embodiment overcomes the limitation of traditional sampling requiring emptying of the pool water through the synergistic effect of the guide plate 22 and the first water-permeable hole 311, thereby improving sampling efficiency. The dynamic sealing technology of the sleeve 31 maintains the original layered structure of the sample and avoids the risk of surface carbon powder contaminating deeper samples. The detachable connection of the first connecting rod 11 and the second connecting rod 12, the sampling rod 21 and the second connecting rod 12 enables continuous adjustment of the sampling depth. At the same time, it facilitates the transportation and storage of the rod assembly 1, the sampling assembly 2 and the sleeve assembly 3 after disassembly, improving the convenience of the device.
[0058] In some embodiments, the third connecting rod 32 includes a first connecting part and a second connecting part, which are arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The second connecting part is located close to the sleeve 31 and has a plurality of second water-permeable holes 321. The first connecting part is located away from the sleeve 31.
[0059] In this embodiment, the third connecting rod 32 is a hollow structure, comprising a first connecting part and a second connecting part coaxially arranged, wherein the second connecting part is adjacent to the first end of the sleeve 31, and the two are connected by welding or flange to form an integral structure. A plurality of second permeable holes 321 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the outer surface of the second connecting part for drainage. The first connecting part is located at the top of the third connecting rod 32 and has no permeable structure. During sampling, when the sleeve 31 cuts into the activated carbon layer, the second permeable holes 321 and the first permeable holes 311 of the sleeve 31 form a double-layer water filtration channel. The second connecting part is located within the annular gap between the sleeve 31 and the rod assembly 1, and its second permeable holes 321 can intercept upward-flowing fine particles, preventing the first permeable holes 311 from becoming clogged.
[0060] This embodiment forms a graded water filtration system by setting a third connecting rod 32 with a second water-permeable hole 321. The first water-permeable hole 311 of the sleeve 31 is responsible for primary water filtration, and the second water-permeable hole 321 of the second connecting part performs secondary interception. The dual filtration mechanism effectively separates solid impurities of different particle sizes and avoids the decrease in drainage efficiency caused by filter hole blockage. The second water-permeable holes 321 are set on the second connecting part and are concentrated near the sampling section, which improves the rationality of the water filtration path, while maintaining the structural strength of the first connecting part to withstand the operating torque.
[0061] In some embodiments, the first connecting rod 11 is provided with a screwing column 111, which is perpendicular to the first connecting rod 11; the first connecting part is provided with a long slot 322, the size of which is adapted to the diameter of the screwing column 111, and the screwing column 111 protrudes out of the third connecting rod 32 through the long slot 322.
[0062] In this embodiment, a cylindrical screw-on column 111 is welded to the outer wall of the first connecting rod 11, with its axis perpendicular to the radial direction of the first connecting rod 11. Preferably, the end of the screw-on column 111 extends 30-50mm beyond the surface of the rod body, facilitating the operation of the rod assembly 1 through the screw-on column 111. The first connecting part of the third connecting rod 32 has an elongated slot 322, the width of which is preferably 0.2-0.5mm larger than the diameter of the screw-on column 111, allowing the screw-on column 111 to extend out of the elongated slot 322 and slide along the elongated slot 322. The elongated slot 322 extends axially along the third connecting rod 32. In use, the third connecting rod 32 is first lifted a certain distance, the rod assembly 1 is rotated to allow the sampling component 2 to cut into the activated carbon layer, and then the third connecting rod 32 is pushed down. The elongated slot 322 on the third connecting rod 32 provides clearance for the screw-on column 111 of the rod assembly 1, allowing the sleeve 31 connected to the second connecting part to smoothly cut into the activated carbon layer, improving the convenience of using the device.
[0063] This embodiment improves operational convenience by cooperating with the screw-in column 111 and the long slot 322. The operating fulcrum formed by the outward extension of the end of the screw-in column 111 is easy for manual gripping and force application. The long slot 322 provides axial clearance space for the rotational movement of the rod assembly 1, ensuring that the screw-in column 111 can slide along the slot without interference when the sleeve 31 is pressed down. After the screw-in column 111 slides to the set position, the rotating rod assembly 1 forms a circumferential limit with the long slot 322, realizing synchronous control of the insertion depth of the sleeve 31 and the sampling action of the rod assembly 1, avoiding positioning deviation caused by step-by-step operation, and ensuring the accuracy of the coordinated movement of the sleeve 31 and the sampling assembly 2.
[0064] In some embodiments, the rod assembly 1 further includes a first telescopic rod disposed between the first connecting rod 11 and the second connecting rod 12; the first connecting part and the second connecting part are separate parts, and the sleeve assembly 3 further includes a second telescopic rod disposed between the first connecting part and the second connecting part.
[0065] In this embodiment, the first telescopic rod refers to the telescopic structure disposed between the first connecting rod 11 and the second connecting rod 12, used to change the total height of the rod assembly 1 by adjusting its axial length to adapt to the sampling requirements of activated carbon layers at different depths. The second telescopic rod refers to the telescopic component in the sleeve assembly 3 that connects the first connecting part and the second connecting part, used to independently adjust the axial length of the sleeve assembly 3, so that the relative position of the sleeve 31 and the rod assembly 1 can flexibly match the sampling environment. The first connecting part and the second connecting part are designed separately, physically connected by the second telescopic rod but retaining independent displacement capability. The first connecting part is used to cooperate with the screw column 111 of the rod assembly 1, and the second connecting part is used to fix the sleeve 31. The separate structure ensures that the length adjustment of the sleeve assembly 3 is not affected by the telescopic movement of the rod assembly 1, and both can independently complete the extension or retraction movement. The dual telescopic design of the rod assembly 1 and the sleeve assembly 3 achieves layered control of the sampling depth and the insertion depth of the sleeve 31 through the synergistic effect of the first telescopic rod and the second telescopic rod.
[0066] This embodiment enhances the device's adaptability to different sampling scenarios by independently adjusting the telescopic extension of the rod assembly 1 and the sleeve assembly 3. The first telescopic rod adjusts the total height of the rod assembly 1 to match the thickness of the activated carbon layer, while the second telescopic rod adjusts the extension length of the sleeve assembly 3 to precisely control the insertion position of the sleeve 31. The split-type connecting part design ensures that the two telescopic systems do not interfere with each other, avoids motion conflicts during synchronous adjustment, ensures the relative positioning accuracy of the sampling assembly 2 and the sleeve 31, simplifies the operation steps, and reduces the complexity of multi-component coordinated adjustment.
[0067] In some embodiments, the inner side of the first telescopic rod is provided with a first protruding ring; the outer side of the second telescopic rod is provided with a second protruding ring, and the first protruding ring overlaps with the second protruding ring; the first protruding ring is used to overlap with the second protruding ring after the first telescopic rod moves downward a preset distance, so as to drive the second telescopic rod to move downward synchronously.
[0068] In this embodiment, the first convex ring forms a mechanical limiting point when the first telescopic rod moves downward independently to a preset position; the contour of the second convex ring matches the contact surface of the first convex ring, and is used to establish a force transmission path when the two overlap. When the first telescopic rod is pressed down to a preset stroke, the inner inclined surface or plane of the first convex ring fits against the outer contact surface of the second convex ring, so that the axial movement of the two components is linked.
[0069] This embodiment achieves phased motion control through the overlapping of the first and second convex rings. In the initial stage, the first telescopic rod moves downward independently to adjust the height of the rod assembly 1. When the first convex ring contacts the second convex ring, continued downward pressure will synchronously drive the second telescopic rod to move, thereby causing the sleeve assembly 3 to press down. This embodiment allows the operator to prioritize adjusting the sampling depth of the rod assembly 1, and then automatically triggers the sleeve 31 to engage, avoiding positioning errors that may occur during manual step-by-step operation. The beveled engagement of the first and second convex rings reduces contact impact and ensures that the two components remain axially aligned during linkage, preventing jamming or wear caused by misalignment.
[0070] In some embodiments, the activated carbon sampling device further includes a first driving unit, which is disposed on the first connecting rod 11 and is connected to the first telescopic rod in a transmission manner. The first driving unit is used to drive the first telescopic rod to move vertically downward.
[0071] In this embodiment, the first drive unit refers to a power output device fixed to the side wall of the first connecting rod 11. It can be an electric push rod or a hydraulic cylinder structure, used to provide axial driving force to the first telescopic rod through a linear transmission mechanism. Optionally, the first connecting rod 11 is provided with a guide rail or limiting groove to constrain the movement trajectory of the first telescopic rod and transmit the thrust of the drive unit. The output end of the first drive unit can be mechanically coupled to the top of the first telescopic rod through a coupling or hinge mechanism to ensure that the driving force can be effectively transmitted to the first telescopic rod in the vertical direction.
[0072] In this embodiment, after the first drive unit is activated, it pushes the first telescopic rod downward along the guide structure of the first connecting rod 11. When the first telescopic rod moves to a preset stroke, its inner first convex ring and the second convex ring of the second telescopic rod form an overlapping linkage, thereby driving the sleeve assembly 3 to press down synchronously to complete the sampling action. This embodiment converts manual operation into mechanical drive, improving the controllability and repeatability of the sampling process, while reducing the need for the operator to apply external force. The rigid structure of the transmission connection ensures efficient transmission of driving force and avoids displacement errors caused by elastic deformation.
[0073] In some embodiments, the activated carbon sampling device further includes a second driving unit, which is disposed on the first connecting rod 11 and is connected to the sampling rod 21 in a transmission manner. The second driving unit is used to control the sampling depth of the sampling rod 21.
[0074] In this embodiment, the second drive unit refers to a power control device integrated on the other side of the first connecting rod 11. It can be a stepper motor or a servo motor paired with a gear reduction mechanism, used to convert rotary motion into linear displacement to adjust the axial position of the sampling rod 21. The output shaft of the second drive unit can engage with the meshing structure of the side wall of the sampling rod 21 through a gear rack or lead screw and nut mechanism to form a power transmission path to precisely control the vertical movement of the sampling rod 21.
[0075] This embodiment achieves layered control through the independent configuration of dual drive units. The second drive unit is activated after the sampling rod 21 reaches the target area, driving it to extend downwards along the inner wall of the sleeve 31 to the set sampling depth, and then retracts in the opposite direction after completing the activated carbon grabbing. This embodiment decouples the sampling depth adjustment from the overall pressing action of the rod assembly 1, avoiding overshoot or positioning deviation that may occur with a single drive system. The precision meshing structure of the transmission connection ensures the accuracy of the movement of the sampling rod 21, while the self-locking characteristics of the gears or lead screws maintain positional stability during the sampling process, preventing depth deviation caused by vibration.
[0076] In some embodiments, the first water-permeable hole 311 at the first end is fan-shaped.
[0077] In this embodiment, by designing the first permeable hole 311 at the first end as a fan-shaped structure, the water flow forms a multi-directional diffusion path when passing through, effectively improving the water flow efficiency and reducing the risk of clogging. The fan-shaped, gradually expanding opening can increase the effective water flow area while ensuring structural strength. Its arc-shaped edge can guide the water flow to be evenly distributed, avoiding the impact of local eddies on the stability of the device. Furthermore, the symmetrical design of the fan shape helps to maintain fluid pressure balance and extend the durability of the permeable structure.
[0078] In some embodiments, the sampling assembly 2 further includes a plurality of first cover plates, which are spaced apart circumferentially along the sampling rod 21 and are disposed at the upper end of the guide plate 22. Each first cover plate is adapted to the size of the first water-permeable hole 311.
[0079] In this embodiment, the assembly structure of multiple first cover plates spaced circumferentially along the sampling rod 21 and the upper end of the guide plate 22 achieves the dual functions of dynamic control of the water permeability path and impurity blocking. The size compatibility between the first cover plates and the first water permeable holes 311 ensures that they completely cover the holes when closed, preventing external particles from entering the internal channels of the sampling rod 21. The spaced distribution allows some of the first water permeable holes 311 to be selectively opened under specific operating conditions, forming a stepped water flow pattern, which maintains the basic flux while avoiding sudden changes in flow velocity caused by full opening. The positioning method of the upper end of the guide plate 22 can coordinate with the opening and closing action of the first cover plates, and adaptively adjust the coverage angle using the fluid pressure difference, reducing the risk of mechanical wear while enhancing the directional guidance effect of the guide plate 22 on the water flow, thereby improving the environmental adaptability and operational reliability of the sampling component 2.
[0080] In some embodiments, the bottom of the sampling rod 21 is cone-shaped.
[0081] In this embodiment, by designing the bottom of the sampling rod 21 as a pointed conical structure, the penetration and media adaptability of the sampling process are significantly improved. The pointed conical bottom reduces insertion resistance, making it easier to penetrate the target sampling layer in hard or high-density sediments, while reducing the squeezing and disturbance to the surrounding media, ensuring the integrity of the original sample state; its streamlined contour can also guide particles to slide off along the slope, avoiding clogging of the sampling port, and reducing the adhesion residue when the rod is retrieved, ensuring the stability and cleanliness of continuous sampling, and extending the service life of the device.
[0082] Unlike existing technologies, the above technical solution has the following beneficial effects:
[0083] This invention achieves non-destructive sampling and efficient operation of deep samples from activated carbon pools through a modular design of rod assembly 1, sampling assembly 2, and sleeve assembly 3. Rod assembly 1 uses a detachably connected first connecting rod 11 and second connecting rod 12, which can be stacked and extended to adapt to different pool depths. It works in conjunction with the third connecting rod 32 of sleeve assembly 3, forming an axial linkage with the sleeve 31. The cutting edge 312 cuts the activated carbon layer and achieves in-situ filtration through the first water-permeable hole 311, effectively preventing collapsing contaminants and preserving the original layered structure of the sample. The spirally arranged guide plate 22, with its optimized spiral angle and gap setting, provides continuous material guidance, working in conjunction with the bottom of the pointed conical sampling rod 21 to reduce penetration resistance and improve sampling efficiency. The graded filtration system of the third connecting rod 32 separates impurities through the design of the first and second water-permeable holes 311 and 321, preventing filter blockage. Combined with the avoidance structure of the screw-in column 111 and the long groove 322, it achieves precise synchronous control of the sleeve 31's cutting depth and sampling action. The separate design of the first and second telescopic rods allows for independent length adjustment of the rod assembly 1 and the sleeve assembly 3. This, combined with the overlapping of the first and second convex rings, enables phased linkage, enhancing the device's adaptability to different sampling environments. The integrated configuration of the first and second drive units converts manual operation into mechanical transmission, improving sampling depth control accuracy and ease of operation. The combination of the fan-shaped first water-permeable hole 311 and the adjustable first cover plate optimizes dynamic control of the fluid path, further ensuring sampling stability. This device features a detachable structure for easy transportation and storage, and its overall design balances functionality and practicality.
